This is why this chieftaincy nonsense must be scrapped. Such foolishness.
I support you FULLY and we have scrap it along with outmoded practices like dipo before we vanish into the stone age.
A ghanaian died..... .. who cares? Good riddance
And see the buffoons around him, instead of pressing the gun wound immediately with a cloth or whatever they could find to stop him from bleeding, they stupidly picked him up as if nothing serious had happened.
Hahahahaha..... can you believe this...???? The animals kept playing their drums. Whaaaatt.....!?!?!? My black African people are some different species indeed
@ Montoya,they say brilliant minds think alike.This is exactly the same thought that crossed my mind.The drums kept beating when their chief literaritlly" shot himself in the foot." Africa,Ghana,when????
The drums kept beating when their chief literaritlly" shot himself in the foot."
That line is supercharged. A pan on modern Ghanaian society,
Life goes on no matter what lol
The smock failed him. I think he thought the smock had powers to stop the bullet from hitting his body but the bullet did not fear the soft smock material. Bullet does not fear juju
we don’t need chieftaincy in ghana. Let the state rule
Sotrue, who told you that. What has your politicians be doing fir us?
The Interior Minister should, with immediate effect, ban the sale and possession of firearms.
Cars/vehicles should be banned from all the people killed in accidents
Hahaha. We are dealing with people full of hate and ignorance at the highest level. Well said .
If you give monkey butter to chop, it will spread it in its face. Why? It is not banana. Gbemela
Then let's ban all cars because a driver has crashed his car and killed himself by accident!
Do you see how absurd that is?
Better still, if government stops asphalting roads, there will be less deaths.
Good roads kill too many people, so let's DEMO against fast roads...
Where do people like you get your stupid comments from from, Uranus?
In that case I suggest we all stop breathing oxygen and letting out carbon dioxide to protect the environment.
Stupid comments, come to United states and see how good roads are aboa ba gyimigyimi you must be fulani leave Ghana asap.
Imbecile !!
You NEED to drive a car to work, school, shopping, but you don't NEED to hold a GUN and put it at yourself or others if you don't won't to DIE. !!
The question is do we still need to live in the past stupid trad ...

No, from sewage like you !
If you don't comprehend what I wrote, go and burn the sea, Kwasia !
Exactly tell them!!!
With a mindset like that, is it surprising there thousands of deaths on our roads each year?
It is not the cars that kills but the recklessness.
This is not a good culture and needs to be stopped.
After all, if an ...

Comparing apples to oranges what they're doing is stupidity,you call that tradition,APUUUUUUU
This is what happens when you eat animal poo as soup. And, Some of these forest people would never learn a lesson. Who else dance with live guns. Go learn from the Chinese how to use gun powder.

Ben you can ban the chieftaincy in your village but don't apply it to all towns.It is is the the display using guns that must be abolished.
You think the Techiman-8 ghosts are joking?

a very stupid fool called a chief.
Ben, scrap it in your useless village.
The guy was drunk he turned the gun towards him without knowing the front of the barrel was pointed in his abdomen. He basically shit himself muahahahaaa see what alcoholic smh go n explain yourself to your maker
After the killing of the queen mother I thought IGP will ban this live ammunition at events
Illiteracy is a disease so this people couldn't see he had shot himself and was dying
The most annying people in this video are the drummers. Dem fool pass
Why, they were paid to drum. They were not there to watch suicide mission. But I agree with you.
How can such a nimrod be leading his people? Wei...go n see the total lack of developmental neglect in his jurisdiction? Joblessness and hunger...amongst his people? How can such a brain bring economic and infrastructure free ...

Hmmm, etuo mu yɛ sum !
How many people should die before government take action? This thing has been happening too often lately
Are the chiefs of the land now wise enough to abolish guns in such a tradition.?????
Why wait for the government to change the tradition you created yourselves?????
They have zero ideas on how to generate revenues, improve their communities and bring prosperity to the people. All they do is drink and stay in the past.
Show show go kill human being
It is avoidable death . It is better he did not kill another person
Are we okay as a nation? Guns these traditional chiefs displayed at functions used only gun powder. With whose permission did the chief carry a pump action gun to the funeral grounds. Was it a failed charm? It's good he didn' ...

Nonsense next time
Good,next time u wont play with gun
Very primitive person.
We thank God he pointed it to himself.
Very big fool who decided to waste the life of his maker gave him .
He thought he is a brave man or a chief so no bullét can penetrate him, Now a disgrace death extended to him. A word to a wise is enough.
The most stupid thing to be ban is this nonsense thing.
Too much mixture of apeteshie, foolishness and premitivity
A critical look at the video shows that, the guy was a little tipsy and was not of himself. He thought the mussle of the gun was pointing upwards and it was when he pressed the trigger, that he realised that he had shot h ...

Wait oo. It appeared as if the people were aware of the whole thing.
Fools die!
This is complete foolishness. I think government should take a look and ban the brandishing of weapons at durbars by chiefs.
... because his foolishness could have resulted in the death of innocent bystanders
Why dance with a loaded gun in the first place?? Sheer stupidity this one!
Primitive people !
Mmrantehene and Nkosuohene are not traditional chiefs. Mmrantehene is the leader of the youngsters. Nkosuohene is the leader for Development, an idea which Kutu Acheampong introduced and Ghanaians accepted. Both Mmrantehene a ...

Needless death
Thank God he didn’t kill somebody instead.
What a fool!
He wanted to commit suicide in public
No comment. Too sad.
Ghanaian moral and cultural values..
Hahahaha..
And the drumming continued.

Still drumming after Nana fell and is being rushed to the hospital? By the way, why a loaded gun?
This time too the gods cannot be blamed for the stupidity of a man
The black man's foolishness. God has cursed us as a human race. This is just unbelievable.
What has this got to do with the foolishness of the blackman? Some Whites are more foolish than black people and i see them everyday here in london.
I will advise you not to feel inferior to the whiteman.
Lack of knowledge blackman perished, he died as a sinful dead and that is the handwork of Satan ,his soul would never rest in peace gyimii saa.

They carried him out as a warrior. Surprisingly, the majority of the people around seemed not to care and the drumming continued. What a country?
I think he committed suicide. First thing you learn about guns is don't point it to people who you don't want them to die. But several times he pointed the gun to himself.

He was just testing his gun juju and it backfired. God is the greatest.
Masa the Juju fail am!!! What a way to bow out? Fake Mallam iskoki… Fear God and act with common sense
There is nothing wrong with chieftancy and display of tradition, just that some practices like display of guns and other useless practices must not be entertained
Imagine this happened in the north, like by now people will insult all northeners..
Look at you. Even a monkey won't do that. What's wrong with you guys? You pointed a gun at your chest and pressed trigger hoping that it wouldn't off. I see. Well done!!
wouldn't go off
This is an unfortunate incidence because most of the guns used for occasion like this are without live bullets.
But this case is different.
The man wanted to test the power of some 'juju' fortification, so he tested with live bullets.
Well, I don't understand why these days, guns are displayed openly at every funerals and other p ...

He thought he had anti-gun juju.
His gun juju has expired,he forgot to renew, before embracing this ritual.RIP chief, poor you,in your next world remember nothing lasts forever
Those who tried to help him by carrying him on their shoulders didn't help the deceased (chief)at all. It's a lesson to the living. Damirifa due! Nana
Pump action gun for traditional display ?
What happened to the musket with gun powder?
That is stupidity.
You don't use pump action gun with live bullets for funeral dance.
By the way is it legal to display pump action gun in public?
He has died stupidly.
Wonderful, see how foolishness can lead to death
Sometimes the devil is innocent ooo.
I am happy he accidentally shot himself and not one of the poor villagers
The gun was sitting his some and refused to be aggravated. He ignored you once and you poked it harder. Got angry and gave you a blow.my dympathies with the gun!
About time we banned this stupidity why you carrying a man who just shot himself in the chest does why died
The show must go on! To those of you who are upset with the performance not stopping after he shot himself. If the gun wasn't even loaded, blanks can still be fatal anyway.
The refusal to see how some antiquated cultural practices are detrimental to human life will only see more of these unnecessary loss of lives take place in the country. How can these chiefs not understand that it's a hazard t ...

I think is high time we stop this chieftance institution in Ghana
A very stupid chief.
I am sure, should I be sad please ?
So sad and at the same time so comic. The black man's stupidity is at another level. May he Rest in Peace.
Black man with weak reasoning

Juju is no match for bullets. Else the Asante Army would have completed defeated the British forces during the Yaa Asantewaa war.
Etuo mu eesum ampa
Nana Mmrantehene adi mmrantesem ampa, Nana piaw,"what is the difference between suicide and what Nana has done?RIP
Go and clean Accra !
Gyimee nkoaa no common sense let's him die
The bullet has no respect for anyone. Once you press the trigger, the bullet goes the direction of the muzzle. A very stupid death. Why provoke death in the name of juju?
Both the chief and the person edging him on appear drunk.
Fools die for want of wisdom more food for the rest of us who are wise
Just came to check the comments...
The police has recently warned that it's illegal to do such displays and look at the stupidity. Ohhh, my people. What a country called Ghana
